Subject: [PATCH] get_signal: simplify/cleanup the the usage of ksig->info

get_signal() uses signr or ksig->info.si_signo in a chaotic way, this
looks confusing. Change it to always use signr.

This allows us to simplify the SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT/group_exec_task branch,
it no longer needs to touch ksig at all.
